Eidos Institute is a registered charity. Every dollar you give goes directly to convening Australians who might never otherwise share a room, and the ideas that come from those meetings.
Donations over $2 are tax-deductible for Australian taxpayers.
Where Your Support Goes
We are transparent about how we use donations. Here's what your contribution funds.
Convenings
Funding invitation-only dinners that bring 12 carefully chosen Australians into the same room to wrestle with a shared challenge.
Research
Commissioning and publishing accessible explainers on Australia's most pressing issues, rigorous but readable.
Online Dialogues
Keeping the Mindhive platform free for participants so that cost is never a barrier to contributing your voice.
Independence
Maintaining our independence from government, media, and commercial interests so our convening stays genuinely open.
Why give
Where your donation goes
Since 2004, Eidos Institute has convened national dialogues across Australia, conversations that bring people who might not otherwise meet into the same room to talk through the questions that matter.
Your donation supports the ongoing work of convening these national conversations, including the five National Dialogues in 2026. Your gift helps us:
- Convene Australians across generations, sectors, and perspectives for respectful dialogue
- Produce independent, non-partisan research and explainers
- Keep participation accessible so cost is never a barrier to contributing your voice
Every Contribution Matters
No gift is too small. No gift is too large. Here's what different levels of support make possible.
Not sure where to start? A one-off gift of $50 puts a new Australian in the room at our next dialogue. Donations of $2 or more are tax-deductible for Australian taxpayers.
Regular Giving
Become a Monthly Supporter
Monthly donors are the backbone of Eidos. A regular gift, however small, means we can plan ahead, commit to long-term projects, and keep our convening independent.
Monthly giving is the single most valuable way to support Eidos, it lets us plan convenings years ahead.

Partner an explainer, $2,500
Around $2,500 covers the research, writing and gathering behind one convening explainer. Two or three partners come together around each issue. Your name sits alongside the explainer, and you distribute it to your own members and networks.
Transparent by Design
Eidos Institute has operated as an independent, non-partisan organisation since 2004. We publish our financials, governance structure, and impact reporting because we believe transparency is part of how we earn trust.

Organisational & Foundation Support
We partner with foundations, corporations, and government agencies whose interests align with open, non-partisan dialogue. We do not accept donations that come with editorial or programming conditions.

Our cornerstone supporter is the English Family Foundation, whose backing enabled both the commercialisation of Eidos technology as Mindhive and the Institute's current strategic direction. Read more about their support.
